ABOUT

My wife and I started our towing company in October, 2006, right after the birth of our first daughter.  I have always been a car enthusiast and had been thinking of starting a business for some time.  The towing business was a natural fit for me.

We were still in the discussion phase when I put in a low, last second bid on a 2001 International Navistar tow truck on ebay.  Much to my surprise the computer screen flashed, "YOU WON!"  I jumped up and said to my wife, "Well, I guess we're in the towing business!"  She thought I was joking until she saw the computer screen.  Then she nearly fainted.

Later that week I drove to Knoxville, Tennessee to pick up my new truck.  When I arrived the previous owner showed me how to operate the truck and the controls.  I loaded the car onto the back of the truck and headed back to Henderson.

At the time, I was an insurance agent.  For the first two months a friend ran the truck while I worked insurance sales.  Weekends I went to local businesses and handed out business cards to help get my new towing business up and running.  Right before Christmas my friend left the business.  I then quit my insurance job and started driving the truck full time, which made my wife about faint again.  I have been in the towing business ever since.  This truck and I have put about 600,000 miles on each other and I've enjoyed every minute of it.

I treat your vehicles like I treat our own:  with care, common sense, and a good general knowledge of what should and should not be done with a vehicle.  We have been in operation nearly seven years now and have built a thriving business, thanks to all of you - my friends and customers.

Thank you so much for your loyalty to our business.
